There are about 36818 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in China. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
The influences of hypertension and antihypertensive medication on psoriasis have been long discussed. Given the limited and inconsistent evidence available, there is a need to further explore and clarify the relationship between hypertension and psoriasis, as well as to assess the relationship between antihypertensive medication use and the development or worsening of psoriasis symptoms. The aim of this retrospective study was to analyze data from electronic health records in a large population-based cohort, and the investigators aimed to investigate whether there was a significant association between hypertension and the use of related antihypertensive medications, such as ACEis, and psoriasis, and to explore potential confounders that may influence this association. Understanding the potential relationship between antihypertensive medication and psoriasis is critical, as this may have implications for the management of hypertension in patients with psoriasis or those at risk of developing the condition. This study will contribute to the existing body of evidence and provide valuable insights for clinicians to make informed decisions about the use of antihypertensive medication in this patient population, ultimately contributing to more effective prevention and management strategies for individuals affected by these diseases.
The goal of this observational study is to compare the differences of intracardiac hemodynamics and myocardial strain in athletes with different training levels to adapt to long-term high-level training in rest conditions. The main questions aim to answer are: 1. whether an increase in amplitude and duration of intracardiac hemodynamics and myocardial strain compared with healthy controls; 2. Whether significant correlations exist between the hemodynamic indices and training level. Participants will be asked to filling out the questionnaire, such as the age, training year (the number of years the athlete has participated in any sport), technical hierarchy (promoted by the Competitive Sports Department of the General Administration of Sport of China, weekly training time in the last 6 months, height, weight, body surface area, heart rate, systolic blood pressure, and diastolic blood pressure; and will be asked to perform an examination of transthoracic echocardiography. Researchers will compare differences of cardiac structure and function, especially the hemodynamics and myocardial strain to see if training level could affect the cardiac function through hemodynamics and myocardial strain.
The goal of this real-world observational study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the Chinese herbal-derived therapeutic Danshen injection following immunosuppressive therapy and prophylactic anticoagulation with low molecular heparin for acute kidney injury in primary nephrotic syndrome. The main questions to answer are: Whether or not Danshen injection is beneficial for acute kidney injury patients in primary nephrotic syndrome patients. Whether or not Danshen injection will increase the bleeding risk in primary nephrotic syndrome patients receiving low molecular heparin. Participants' information will be retrieved from hospital files stored in medical records and the electronic patient data registry. Participants received Danshen injection will be compared with control group to evaluate the recovery of renal function and side effects.
Depression is a common psychiatric disorder in patients on maintenance hemodialysis (MHD). It may contribute to poor prognosis in a number of ways, including its effect on platelet function. We aimed to investigate the impact and underlying mechanisms of depression on the occurrence of cardio-cerebral vascular events (CCVE) and dysfunction of arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) in MHD patients. In this study, MHD patients were recruited and divided into depression and non-depression groups using the Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) in this prospective cohort study. Their clinical and laboratory indicators were collected and the occurrence of CCVE and DAVF were recorded through clinical follow-up, and analyzed, and the differences and possible influencing factors of CCVE and DAVF occurrence were assessed between the two groups of patients.
The aim of this study was to design a deep learning-based trained model to assist in HFimpEF diagnosis.
This retrospective study aimed to create a prediction model using deep learning and radiomics features extracted from intratumoral and peritumoral regions of breast lesions in ultrasound images, to diagnose benign and malignant breast lesions with BI-RADS 4 classification. Materials and methods: Patients who visited in The First Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University ＆ Shandong Provincial Qianfoshan Hospital were collected. Their general clinical features, information on preoperative ultrasound diagnosis, and postoperative pathologic data were reviewed.
Pain is common for the first 2 days after major craniotomy. A majority of patients would suffer from moderate-to-severe postoperative pain after undergoing craniotomy. Inadequate analgesia induced sympathetically mediated hypertension may lead to an increased risk for post-operative complications. Adequate pain control is essential for patients' prognosis and their postoperative life quality. Pain after craniotomy derives from the scalp and pericranial muscles. Local anesthetics administered around the incision have been performed clinically. However, some studies revealed that the analgesic effect of local anesthetics was not unsatisfactory due to its short pain relief duration. Pain is common for the first 2 days after major elective intracranial surgery, and the relatively short analgesic time of scalp infiltration does not seem to meet the requirements of craniotomy. Steroid such as triamcinolone acetonide as an adjuvant to local anesthetics intra-articular injected locally ameliorated pain intensity inarthroscopic knee surgery or total knee arthroplasty. However, there has not been reported about local application of triamcinolone acetonide on scalp infiltration. Thus, the investigators suppose that pre-emptive scalp infiltration with steroid (triamcinolone acetonide) plus local anesthetic (ropivacaine) could relieve postoperative pain after craniotomy in adults.
This is a non-intervention, prospective, open-label and observational clinical trial. The researchers plan to recruit at least 50 qualified patients. The main purpose of this study was to establish a population pharmacokinetic(PPK) model of lenalidomide and explore factors associated with the adverse events of lenalidomide from a pharmacokinetic(PK) perspective.
A phase 1, single center, 1 sequence, 3 period, open label, multiple doses study to evaluate the drug-drug interaction of JMKX000623 tablet and metformin.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Ningmitai capsule alone or in combination with sildenafil compared with sildenafil alone in the treatment of CP/CPPS with erectile dysfunction. Study Design: A multicenter, prospective, randomized and positive drug-controlled clinical study design was adopted. Interventions: ① Western medicine group (sildenafil): Sildenafil citrate, 25mg/capsule, once a night, one capsule each time, for 4 weeks. ② Chinese medicine group (Ningmitai capsule): Ningmitai capsule, 0.38 g/capsule, 3 times a day, 4 capsules each time, taken after meals for 4 weeks continuously. ③ Combination group (Ningmitai capsule + sildenafil): Ningmitai capsule, 0.38 g/capsule, 3 times a day, 4 capsules each time, taken after meals; Sildenafil citrate, 25mg/capsule, once a night, one capsule each time, was taken continuously for 4 weeks.
